It wasn't too long ago that the sight of a screaming, long-range goal from Paul Scholes was a regular occurrence in all of our lives.

The iconic Manchester United midfielder made howitzer strikes his trademark - even rival fans have to (grudgingly) admit that some of his goals were truly, truly beautiful. We'll admit it - we miss the happy days of Scholes' Premier League heroics.

As he shapes up to shoot from distance, the opposition defence completely fail to close him down - a fatal error. Scholes' shot strikes the net like a lightning bolt, flashing past the keeper at an almost impossible speed.
